We shall see. Meanwhile, from a link in yours that said "unsustainable debt" referring to China loans to Africa:

This rapid growth in trade and project financing has served both Africa and China well. For Africa, trade has boosted economic development in many countries, and the financing of infrastructure projects, for which little concessional financing is available, has helped address crucial bottlenecks to industrial development and structural transformation.

Mexico's President to Trump: America is for migrants.
If I were US President, I would consider this an act of war, a brazen attack on America's national and territorial sovereinty.
China is for the Chinese, Japan for the Japanese, even Mexico for the Mexicans, but America for Migrants.
I know that this assault and insult is emboldened by the insane domestic rhetorics of the antiamerican left wing, such as the great chicanery that "because our founding fathers were immigrants, therefore we are a nation of immigrants".
Absolute nonsense. All nations were founded by immigrants and its only America that that makes a nation of immigrants. Even the sacred cow native Americans did not sprout on the spot. They floated across the sea from somewhere. The primitive times was a period of mass migration, but over time communities, nations, territorial sovereignties, citizenship and borders emerged.
Therefore, there is nothing like a nation of immigants. A nation is a nation of its citizens everywhere else outside of America where sanity is oppressed by left wing lunacy.

Trump briefly admits to Russia ‘helping me to get elected’


http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trump-briefly-admits-russia-helping-me-get-elected?cid=sm_npd_ms_tw_ma

It’s probably fair to say Robert Mueller’s public remarks left Donald Trump even more rattled than usual. This morning, for example, the president argued via Twitter that the special counsel “would have brought charges, if he had ANYTHING, but there were no charges to bring!”

Perhaps Trump didn’t see Mueller’s remarks yesterday. Alternatively, maybe Trump saw them but didn’t understand what the retiring special counsel had to say.

Soon after, the president published some additional thoughts on the matter, which included one highly provocative concession:

“Russia, Russia, Russia! That’s all you heard at the beginning of this Witch Hunt Hoax. And now Russia has disappeared because I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected. It was a crime that didn’t exist.

“So now the Dems and their partner, the Fake News Media, say he fought back against this phony crime that didn’t exist, this horrendous false acquisition, and he shouldn’t fight back, he should just sit back and take it. Could this be Obstruction? No, Mueller didn’t find Obstruction either. Presidential Harassment!”

There’s quite a bit of nonsense in the missives, but I’d draw your attention to one specific thing: “I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected.”

Oh. So from Trump’s perspective, Russia helped elect him, but he personally had nothing to do with the foreign adversary’s illegal election interference.

I’m occasionally reminded of Michael Kinsely’s old joke about politicians who make a mistake by accidentally telling the truth.

The president then deleted those tweets, only to republish the same thought soon after, changing “false acquisition” to “false accusation.”

The important line – “I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected” – appeared in both the original and the corrected texts.

As far as I can tell, this the first time Trump publicly acknowledged Russia’s role in elevating him to power.

Perhaps unaware of the significance of what he’d just told the world, the president seemed to walk back his own assertions soon after. During a brief Q&A with reporters at the White House, he said, “No, Russia did not help me get elected. You know who got me elected? You know who got me elected? I got me elected. Russia didn’t help me at all.”

That was not only at odds with everything we know about reality, it also contradicted what he’d published to Twitter less than an hour earlier.
It is a great insult by democrats to America to allege that Russia manipulated their voting, and Americans should be thoroughly ashamed to admit it. But if Russia really did sway the votes, then the beneficiary was Clinton. She had 3 million more votes than Trump. Trump was saved only by the Electoral College.

CLARIFICATION : This rant is no endorsement of Xenophobia. There are hundreds of US entry processing centres around the world and there is nothing xenophobic about insisting that immigration be kept legal and orderly. This is a condemnation of mass migration and borderlessness. Like Dalai Lama said, 'Europe belongs to the Europeans'. People should remain in, or return to their own lands to work to rebuild and develope it,

U.S./Mexico close to a deal to avoid tariffs.

Mexico has proposed sending 6,000 troops to its southern border w/ Guatemala and what sounds like a modified version of a “safe third country” agreement. Unclear how close or if it will satisfy Trump.

Trump’s Tariffs Have Already Wiped Out Tax Bill Savings for Average Americans

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-06-07/trump-s-tariffs-have-wiped-out-most-families-tax-cut-gains

President Donald Trump’s trade wars have already wiped out all but $100 of the average American household’s windfall from Trump’s 2017 tax law. And that’s just the beginning.

That last $100 in tax-cut gains also could soon disappear -- and then some -- because of additional tariffs Trump has announced or is considering. If the president makes good on his threats to impose levies on virtually all imports from China and Mexico, those middle-earning households could pay nearly $4,000 more as they shell out more for a vast range of goods -- from avocados to iPhones.

Subtract the tax cut, and the average household will effectively be paying about $3,000 more a year in additional costs.

“It’s giving with one hand and taking with the other,” said Kim Clausing, an economics professor at Reed College in Portland, Oregon, who’s written a book promoting free trade.

Here’s how the math works: middle earners got an average tax cut of $930 for tax overhaul passed in late 2017, according to the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center. The tariffs already in effect cost the average household about $831, according to research from the New York Federal Reserve.

But they've been telling us for years that the tax cut benefited only the rich so which windfall for average families are they talking about? These loser armchair economists should go take a back seat, those average americans don't give a damn about their quack analysis. What matters to them is that they have more money in their pockets and accounts. All records show that Average americans are earning more and more people are getting jobs under Trump. All these paper thumping "economists" should take their quack analysis and shove it where the sun don't shine.
